The latest and greatest beverages are being introduced at the 2022 Winter Fancy Food Show and among them is Figgee, a coffee alternative that's made from figs. This roasted fig beverage can be enjoyed on its own or as a caffeine-free replacement for coffee and it is packed with benefits from many minerals and vitamins. The product also resembles ground coffee, and it can be added to coffee to enhance its health benefits, all the while reducing the harshness and bitterness of coffee on its own.
This beverage is as easy to prepare as coffee or tea, and it is said to be about twice as strong as coffee, so only half the amount is needed when using traditional brewing techniques. This vegan, antioxidant-rich beverage is free from fat, low in sugar and alkaline.
